The police have called a witness to the alleged harassment of two Johor media practitioners by a minister’s bodyguard last Tuesday to provide their statement.
Johor police chief Kamarul Zaman Mamat said the internal investigation has been conducted, with the witness statement recorded.
"If (anyone) wants to lodge a police report, you can do so, we will continue investigating if there’s a need to do so,” he told reporters when asked about updates regarding the incident after inspecting a counting centre at Sultan Ibrahim Diamond Jubilee Hall today.
Media outlets reported yesterday that two women journalists suffered alleged harassment at the hands of a minister’s bodyguard while covering a by-election campaign event at Taman Anggerik and Taman Dahlia on Tuesday.
In other developments, Kamarul Zaman said that 140 police reports regarding minor election offences had been lodged from Aug 26 until midnight yesterday, while voting went smoothly at all polling centres for both the Pulai parliamentary and Simpang Jeram state by-elections.
